YETALREADY JUST

we use the present perfect with ALREADY to say something happened in the past, but sooner than we thought. It usually goes after the auxiliary verb:

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. SHE'S ALREADY CLEANED THE FLOOR

we use YET with the present perfect questions and negative statements to say we think something will happen in the future. It usually goes at the end of a sentence:

HAVE YOU EMPTIED THE TRASH CAN YET? HE HASN'T DONE THE LAUNDRY YET?

we use JUST to mean "a very short time ago". It usually goes after the auxiliary verb

HE JUST LEFT (=ABOUT FIVE MINUTES AGO

XQUIDXEPE' LA'TO!
